Cohabitation cloud
The front page of this week's Circle looks
different from those
·
of the past. We are
presenting an Issue which, according to
students at Marlst, ls an important part of
life on campus. Thus, before we are accus-
ed of "blowing things out of proportion," we
would just like to say that we are doing our
job as a newspapet -
serving our communi-
ty by providing information on the issues
which are important to students.
·
Why did we devote the entire- front page
to one issue? Because during the past
week, many different rumors concerning
cohabitation have spread
.
all over campus,
causing some confusion as to what really is
the truth
.
The cohabitation norm is not new; it-has
been in the handbook for a long time. So,
why the big fuss?
It
·
is probably the most
widely ignored norm on the reco~ds and, ac-

remain that
way.
·
However, now this norm Is supposed to be
enforced by the resident
·
staff, with
·
disciplinary action for violations.
Now, we know that norms are not formed
by popular vote -
but If a vote had been
taken on any other norm, such as noise, van
~
dalism, cheating, or even alcohol in the
freshman dorms, the opoosition would not
have been as strong. That in itself means
t
_
hat the cohabitation norm Is quite different
from other Marlst norms
.
..
·
It is a different type of norm, too, because
it deals wi_th a sensitive topic. The college
has rnade a stand that, because of Marlst's
heritage, cohabitation is not permitted, But
if 97% of the students who are Marlst Col-
lege
.
disagree with this norm, shouldn't that
at least be considered? Or will this just re-
main as a rule because that's the way it has
always been?
.
.
.
.
Many of us come from homes in which
certain rules are set up by which we
·

has these rules, too -

.
But at home, as we get older

Intramurals
Dear Editor,
This letter is in response to the
charges issued by Ed Kennedy to
the
intramural
program,
specifically flag football.
.
First of all, Ed stated that their
were only eight school days until
the rosters for flag football were
due. The fact
•
is that we started
class on the 31st of August and
the rosters were due on the 14th of
September
.
That's two weeks
everyone had to hand in their
rosters. The reason that
·
this is
done is because the best football
wea
t
her is in September and the
longer we wait on things like
·
rosters, we lose the great weather.
If
we wait like last year we'll end
up playing the playoffs in freezing
·
temperatures.
Another thirig Ed complained
about was the lack of ad-
vertisments for the commuters
that flag football was going to
start soon. Among our
·
ten-team
league this year, there are seven
ieams that are comprised of either
all,
or a majority of up-
perclassmen on their
·
team. On
these seven rosters
·
their are 92
names.
SIXTY of them are
commuters and 32 are residents;
That is nearly a 2 to 1 ratio in
·
favor of the
uninformed com-
muters. There are three teams
.
made up
of
all freshmen, but we
all know not too many freshman
are going to live off campus. Even
.
if we add those three teams in,
·
·
about half the league lives off
campus.
It was very noble of.you, Mr.
Kennedy; to offer your own time
to make up a new schedule, but
that shouldn't even be necessary,
becawse you
.
didn't have your
roster in on time.
If
we did let you
into the league, all the other
·
teams would have to accept the
changed schedule
.
At the first
captain's
meeting
·
all
the
·
schedules were given out. It
would have wasted a lot of
people's time to meet again and
hand them a whole new schedule
just because one team didn't get
their roster. in on time. It
wouldn't have been fair to the
people who saw·the signs in each
dorm and in the campus center, or
even in the McCann Center
.
hi
general, Ed, your letter just
sounds like a bunch of sou
r
·
grapes. Ten other captains were
responsible enough to get their
rosters in, but you didn't and you
want to pass the blame on to
someone else
..
·
.
And if you're concerned with
·
this year's champion
being
worthy
·
enough, I'm sure tliis
year's winner would love to
give
your teani a chance to defend
your position at the end of
.
the
season. Just follow the signs

ROTC results in a tie
By Susan Vassallo
The v6ti of the Marist College faculty on ·
whether to allow the Reserved Officer
Training Corps the . use of the Marist
campus facilities resuited in .a tie at the
faculty plenary session held last week.
.
'
. .
The , faculty and · student attitudes
towards the R.O.T.C. program .will be
presented to the Marist board of trustees at
it's meeting on Nov;
6
by Ted Prenting,
chairman of the faculty, and Joan
''Schatzie" Gasparovic, - student body
president. According to Dean of Students
Gerard Cox, after all inputs have 'been
taken . into consideration, the board will
make it's finai decision.
The plenary sessiori was the final
gat~eH~g ·. of the. faculty to_ discuss the
subject of R.0.T.C. According to Cox, a
proposal tQ allow the program on campus
was present~ to · the faculty . at the
beginning of. last May. The faculty said
they fe!t" the issue needed more _time for
discussion. During this semester, their have
been two faculty colloquium where faculty
members were given· _the opportunity to
voice their individual opinions on the
subject.
The major concern of those opposed to
the R.0.T.C. program being on campus,
according to discussion that took place at
the last colloquium on Sept.
17,
was that
the program would change the atmosphere
and image of the Marist community:
Proponents of the program argued that the
students' freedom of choice should be
considered.
The R.O.T.C; program, according to the
proposal,. would consist of a four-year ·
sequence of courses offered on the campus
by military personnel to those students who
wish to take part in the program. Ac-
cording to Cox, no academic credit will be
given for these courses. Scholarships are
available and R.O.T.C. students would
only be required to wear their uniforms to
the military classes said Colonel Herbert
Siegel, a speaker at the last colloquium.
A second forum will be held on Nov. 1,
which will give students an opportunity to
hear speakers from both sides of the issue.
At the end of the forum, according to Cox,
a survey will be handed out to the students
in order to get their opinions on paper. The
surveys will not be given out to all Marist
students, only those who attend the forum.
"By only giving the surveys out to students
who have expressed enough interest to
attend the forum," said Cox, "we will be
guaranteed that they are informed on the
matter and have been able to reach their
own conclusion.''
Presently, the Marist students who are
cadets in the R.O.T.C. are holding their
meetings
at a
reserve
center in
Poughkeepsie, according to Paul Peterson,
a cadet and Marist student. Peterson said
he was surprised that there were so many
faculty opposed to the program coming to
Marist. "I believe they are thinking and
acting in their own interest rather than in
the interest of the students and the future
of the school"
If
the board of trustees votes in favor of
the program, military classes would begin
at Marist this November, according to
Peterson.

A
segment of history to be brought back
By Matthew Mcinerny
· Wooden beams, which·
were
once
covered with flowing vines, currently
resemble oversized pick-up sticks on brick
pillars.
·
·
The four-foot deep· Romanesque
fountain now contains a foot of stagnant
water sprinkled with leaves and empty beer
caris. The naked statue in· the center has
had its left arm crudely amputated.
The walls and benches of the concrete
pavillion, where friends of Fredereck
Vanderbilt once sat viewing his. Italian
Garden, today bear the names and initials
of intruders wishing to leave t)leir mark for
all others to see.
·
· Vanderbilt's once flourishing flower
beds, constructed in 1897 and now
belonging to the United States government,
show the signs of neglect, largely due to an
undersized staff and a lack of sufficient
funds.
But the National Park Service in Hyde
Park, N.Y., which oversees the Vanderbilt
Mansion, recently obtained a federal grant
of $500,000
for
restoration
and
stablization of structures in the garden.
Susan Brown, assistant curator for the
Hyde Park office, said the grant will cover
the stabilization of brick and concrete work
on the garden. The Hyde Park office also
handles the F.D.R. Home and Library and
Bellefield Park Offices.
It has taken nine years for .the Hyde Park
.office to acquire this grant from · the
government. They have received the ex~ct
sum they requested originally with no
inflation adjustment; therefore, they are
unable to restore the garden to its original
condition.
·
·
·
The stabilization, as Brown calls it, will
begin in late October \\'.ith the installation
of drainage ducts to the fountain and pool.
''Drainage is 40 .percent of the.work," she
said.
:
The drainage is expected
to
be completed
or nearly completed, before the snow flies,
according to Brown.
'Work
will
resume
next spring as early as possible and end in
the fall.
So, wi,th mortar and trowel in hand,
masons· from the D.W.K. Technical
Construction Co. of Napanoch, N~Y.'will
set out to restore this important part of the
Vanderbilt Mansion's rich history.
Excavation work will be required to
rebuild walls and buildings. The foun-
dations of these structures must be checked
to ensure stability before actual rebuilding
starts .. After the drainage system is in-
stalled, the pool and fountain areas wiU
need to have
a new
surface applied.
· What if private donations were used for
replanting the beds?

government,
according to
Brown.
. "Basically, you ·have to avoid private
donations," Brown said. "Bellefield was
donated by Gerald Morgan to the
government because he. wanted to protect
the northern boundaries of the F.D.R.
estate from commercial developers. In
order to accept his donation, an act of
Congress was needed." ·

Many Marist students enjoy going out
and having a few drinks on the weekends
but very few know about the Alcohol
Awareness Task Force on campus.
Keating, who is a junior, said there are
approximately ten people on the task force.
There· are students and. even a college
janitor en the the task force.
·
·
According to Keating, the task force was
formed in the spring
1981
semester by in-
terested student leaders. ·
Anne Keating, chairman of the program,
and the other people involved are trying to
change that.
_
..
"We're trying to do just ·what the title
says ...:._ raise awareness," Keating said.
"We don't want to preach to anyone, we

"Right now we're working on a_ report

In the first three weeks of school this
semester, there were five alcohol-related in-
juries on campus. That's really something
to worry about," Keating said.
She also said that the group is working
on a request that would ask the bartenders
in the Pub not to serve people who are
already intoxicated.
Last year, the .task force organized an ·

said was successful. This year the group

···Farley blames· drinking in Jail
By Brian Kelley
, Patrick Farley, the sophomore who suffered severe injuries.
six weeks ago when he fell off a cliff by the river, -said that
drinking was responsible for the accident.
"I never would have tried to climb down that cliff in the
dark if I hadn't been drinking,'' Farley said.
As a result of the fall, Farley suffered serious liver damage
and lacerations on his face and head. He also fractured his
jawbone, cheekbone, and both bones surrounding his eye
sockets. He received a total of fifty-five stitches.
He was out of school for two weeks; seven days in the
hospital and seven at home. Farley spent one-and-a-half days
in the intensive care of St. Francis hospital.
No one can argue that Farley is a lucky man. .
"After I fell .two of my friends, Dan Spuhler and Chris
Burke, found me lying in the river. Dave Gregory, another
friend of mine, went to notify the police.''
Farley was taken to St. Francis hospital, where doctors at-
tended to his external injuries. However, his blood pressure
kept dropping, so an exploratory operation was performed.
The injury to his liver was discovered during this operation.
"The impact of the rocks against my abdomen caused my
liver to split open,'' Farley said. '' I lost four pints of blood.''
Farley said that drinking is not -wrong, but that it makes
people think they can do things that they can't normally do.
"Once you start drinking a lot you really begin to lose track
over how much you've had," he said.
"It's interesting to come back to Marist and hear about all
the rumors that went around. Someone told me that they had
heard I was paralyzed from the neck down, and other people
- thought I was on drugs," Farley said. .
The blood test that was performed at the hospital showed a
high alcohol content
(3.0),
but showed there were no drugs in
Farley's body.
"I can't drink again until Christmas," he said. "I'll still
drink, but not nearly as much, and I'll probably keep it in-
doors."
"There's a New York State Law that
makes it unlawful for bartenders to serve
people who are already drunk. How many
times have you seen someone who can
barely walk go up to the bar and still get
served?" Keating said.
Keating said she feels that much of the
vandalism and personal injury that occurs
on campus is a direct result of alcohol
abuse.
"Alcohol abuse does much more than
cause personal problems," Keating said.
"People have broken windows here while
being drunk, fights have broken out and a
!ot o~ other thing~ happen when people are
mtox1cated that Ju~t wouldn't happen if
they were straight," she added.
"Some people just don't know when to
stop," she said. "They use alcohol on a
steady basis in order to relieve their ten-
sions. The only peoblem is that the patterns
that are set here will continue when we
leave."
According to Keating one out of every
five people driving on the weekend is intox-
icated, and one out of every ten during the
week.
She said the task force's main goal is to
inform, not to counsel.
"We can refer people to Alcoholics
Anonymous and similar agencies, but
we're not trained to deal with alcoholics
Keating said.
'
"A drinking problem is something that
does not come about over night," she said.
"It is develoP.ed over a long period of time.
If
we can get one person to find help, then
our goals have been accomplished."

ROTC II
To the Editor:
On Monday,
1
November, the
council of Student Leaders will
conduct its second student forum
on the proposal to establish an
R.O.T.C. program on our cam-
pus as a voluntary, non-academic
activity for both men and women.
Before
someone
calls
"sacrilege" over the forum being
held coincidentally on All Saints
Day, I want to assure all readers
that C.S.L.'s forum is not an act
of irreverence.
However, the coincidence is
perhaps fortuitous. All Saints (All
Hallows) Day, despite the tradi-
tional antics of . the evening
before, is a specific reminder of
our heritage just as are many
other
days
of
religious
observance.
Heritage is the product of col-
lective efforts. It is a product of
·the past which challenges us in the
this campus. Believe that we in-
dividually and collectively have a
. treasure to share with future
generations and that Marist's
degrees can serve as our symbols,
our signs of hope to those entrap-
ped by pessimism and cynicism.
The discussions over R.O.T.C.,
whatever the outcome, should
help us to better understand
ourselves, our heritage and the
mission of this institution. Listen,
discuss, and then make an in-
formed decision.
Sincerely yours,
Gerard A. Cox

Homecoming floats II
Dear Editor:
It
se_ems. to us that people at
Marist are very willing to sign up
for something, but more reluctant
to help out when the time comes
around.
· Along with about thirty other
people, we thought that we would
get involved and help out with the
Sophomore Class float. When the
building time arrived; how many
people of the thirty made an
appearance? Nine -
including
two non-sophomores. As a result,
the Sophomore Class float wasn't
as good as originally planned; and
was, in our book a waste of
$50.00.
We're tired of hearing excuses.
We're tired of hearing un-
necessary comments about our
float. At least nine people who
cared got something off of the
ground, and they deserve many
thanks.
As for those who signed up but
never showed, think about it, and
next time if you don't plan on
helping, DON'T SIGN UP!
Karen Johnson, Ed St. John,
Fire up
·Dear Editor:
It has come to my notice that
on returning from the mid-term·
break, a gaping wound had been
wrought on the lounge in Gregory
House. Some person or persons
have seen fit to purloin the
firestove from the lounge, and as
a result I am suffering from
withdrawal symptoms.
Being
Irish, I am used to having a
fireplace in most of the rooms of
my own home and therefore I
became very attached to the fire
in Gregory ... memories of home
and all that.
As a result of Gregory's loss I
have developed a pyromania-
oeidipal complex. To be more
specific-when I arrived back from
the break, I was literally gagged
with
a spoon at Gregory's
awesome loss and because this
situation is grody to the max, it
has cast a totally beige gloom over
Gregory House, with the prospect
of no heat for the winter
Please, through the offices of
your newspaper, try and do
something to make Gregory
House tubular again.

Halloween festivities
By Carol Lane
A mummy and a scarecrow walk arm

Mosquito syndrome
To the Editor:
I find mosquitos very annoy-
ing. I also find bureaucrats an- ·
noying, especially when they get
caught up in . following their own
inflexible routines. I would like to
thank Betty Yeaglin for doing
sucli a super job on enforcing the
."carry your I.D. card at all
times" rule.
· It's just too bad for all you •
boys and girls who live off cam-
,
pus who happened to forget them.
You must learn boys and girls,
that ·you will not be admitted to
any · free mixers without your
I.D. 's. For that matter, you won't
even be admitted to a .class in the
Mccann center without your
I.D., and for all you girls,
whatever you do, don't leave your
I.D.'s on the bottom .of your
pocketbooks. You'll hold up the
impatient lines waiting to enter all
the extravagant school functions.
I would personally like to thank
you, Betty Yeaglin for telling my
employer ·to
write me . that
scolding letter about· how disrup-
tive I was at a recent mixer. You
certainly put me in my place that
night, and I certainly learned my
lesson. (Gee, I thought for sure I
was out of grade school by now
not to mention I've been here for
six years.) Well I promise you,
Betty, I'll say my penance for
committing such a terrible sin.
And, \,oys and girls, if you
think carrying your I.D.'s at fll
times is annoying, wait until the
cohabitation rule starts to .be en-
forced! Anyone caught with a
member of the opposite sex in
their room after 12 p.m. will be
spank~d, placed on d-!tention for
a week and write, "I will not
break the cohabitation rule ever
again," one thousand times! (At
least the gays will s_till make out.)
In all seriousness, folks, our
rights to privacy and autonomy
are being grossly invaded. We pay
dearly for these tiny rooms which
we call our homes, while also try-
ing to pay for an education. It
should be our right to have
members of. the opposite sex in
our rooms as long as we wish
without disregard for our room-
mates' wishes.
I always thought college was
the . beginning of independence.
Are we that competent that we
have to be lead around and watch-
ed like children? I would hope the
majority of you resent this at-
titude and not be afraid to speak.
out against it! (ls that all we
represent to Marist - a number?)
To the administration, do you
really think enforcing these rules
will change the situation? Girls
can get pregnant at
12
in the after-
noon just as easily as
12
o'clock at
night!
As to the alcohol problem, if
you can't stop the drug problems,
good luck in trying to solve the
alcohol problem, students one
way or another will still drink.
Also, your. creating a self-
fulfilling prophecy.
If
you're go-.
ing to treat the student body like
children, invade their privacy,
and look at them as a number
then you can expect students to
rebel and act just how they're be-
ing treated.
As to the students, if you want
this enforced, then sit back and
don't speak out, but be willing to
accept the consequences.
There are many more serious
problems to be dealt with here at
Marist. Why not concentrate your
efforts on these problems?

M.aris
tf
reshman, 48,
hits new
life
at college
by Matthew Mcinerny
At age 16, Sal Ferdico's parents removed
him from high school to work. At age 48, ·
• Ferdico is back in school as a freshman at
Marist College.
Born in Harlem and raised in the·Bronx,
Ferdico had a night job as a baker while in
junior high school. "I used to sleep in
school because of work," Ferdico said.
Finally his parents ·took him out of school
so he could continue working.
At
age 27, after developing an- allergy to
flour, a friend got him a job with a private
investigating firm in New York City. Fer-
. dico worked his way up through the com-
pany~ going from a security guard to assis-
tant manager. As assistant manager he was
responsible for the payroll of 275
men,
, uniforming expenses and finger-printing.
After three·heart attac.ks, he retired and
went on disability in 1976.
·
He tried to find work after leaving the
force. Ferdico applied for a license to start
. his own private investigating company but
was refused by the state. He was also turn-
ed down by I.B.M. Corp. because of his
disability. According to Ferdico, he
couldn't find a job because "nobody wants
an uneducated
I>.l."
With his brother Peter keeping on his
back to go back to school, Ferdico took the
General Equivalency Diploma test on Jan.
9, 1982. He compiled 248 points out of a
possibie 300 to earn his high school
· diploma.
· His brother was instrumental in his deci-
sion to attend Marist. "Peter and his wife
both graduated . from
Marist with
philosophy degrees. He now works for
Marist with inmate education," Ferdico
said.
· He is majoring in Business Administra-
tion, claiming he's had enough police
work.
"They (registrar's office) wanted to put
me in criminal justice because of my
.
background, but I wanted to study
business. They said I could get around 40
credits ber:ause of my background," he
said.
According to Ferdico, he is taking some
"tough courses." Economics, philosophy,
population and world resources, sociology
and applied learning techniques comprises
his schedule.
Like most new students, Ferdico has had
trouble adjusting to some courses.
"Philosophy is a lot of double talk. It's my
fault I don't understand some things. But
the professor explains the problems to me
and I understand them a little better," he .
said .
Economics is his toughest course, he ad-
mits. "On my mid-term I got a C, but the
mean was 50, so that is good."
·
!'I'm doing well for a guy who has been
out of ~chool so long. But since the time I
went to school, education has excelled," he
said.
For Ferdico, getting back in the groove
. of school has taken a lot. He credits
''everybody at _Marist" for being a big
help. From the girls in the registrar's office
and financial aid, to his professors and
fellow students, he has nothing but praise.
There is something that goes along with
being an older person in classes. "It
doesn't feel good to be. the oldest, because
kids feel I should know more,'' he said.
There are some things he does know
-things he has taught himself. He'.s learn-
ed Spanish and Italian on his own. "I need-
ed it for work," he said.
Work will be in the back of his mind as
he continues his education. His biggest
worry is whether there will be a job opening
for him at age 52. But his ultimate goal is
to achieve a bachelor's degree, maybe a
master's, and then search for.work.
Ferdico loves school and he's "sorry" he
didn't get here sooner. And, as he told his
doctor why he was going to school, "I
would like to graduate before I drop
dead." ·

October has been quite a month for
Marist College rock fans. On the statewide
level, The Who has performed in New
York and Buffalo. At the local level, The
Mid-Hudson Civic Center will be hosting
Peter Gabriel and Men at Work next week.
Finally,on the campus level, RCA recor-
ding artists, 805, headlined a concert in the
Marist cafeteria last weekend.
The Who have stirred up all the publicity
that had just fizzled out from the recent
Rolling Stones tour of America. However
The Who is doing their "farewell' tour, so
that allows them to charge no less than $15
a ticket. By the time most fans got a ticket
in their hand they more than likely had to
pay close to $40 to profiteers who are far
from real Who fans.
The lineup is the same as The Who that
performed the last tour. The New York
shows, and the Buffalo shows were out-
doors; this insured the promoters of mak-
ing big bucks. As a matter of fact concert
promoter Jim Koplick was going to have
The Who play at the Hartford Civic Center
on December 9, but the show failed to
materialize because the promoter wasn't
going to get enough money. The Who is an
excellent band to catch in concert, but no
band is worth the money that The Who has
been drawing in. When I was presented
with the option of buying Shea Stadium ·
tickets for $35, I was the first person to say
"farewell" to The Who. Let's hope there
is11't another "farewell" tour in three
years; then the tickets will probably be pric-
ed in the hundreds.
Two excellent shows are in store for the
Mid Hudson Civic Center. On November 1
Peter Gabriel, former lead singer of
Genesis, will be performing at the Civic
Center. Gabriel left Genesis back in 1974,
and has continued to receive approval from
critics throughout his four-album solo
career. His most recent album
Security
is
doing well on the album charts, and so is
the album's single, "Shock th~_Monkey."

questionable whethei or not $8.50 in ad-
vance and $9.50 at the door was a little too
steep. The show has been sold out since last
Friday afternoon, so the price must be
right. The show will be general admission,
and a giant dance floor
will be provided.
Since the show was scheduled, Men at
Work has scored a number one single with
"Who Can it be Now," and a top ten
album with
Business as Usual. Men at
Work has been selling out shows all over
America since they left Fleetwood Mac's
recent tour as a warm-up act. A recent
Vancouver show sold out 13,000 seats,
something that even Fleetwood Mac has to
cross their fingers to achieve. This
Australian band
will
surely score just as
well with the American audience as The
Little River Band, · Air Supply and Rick
Springfield have done in the past.
Even Marist College sponsored a concert
in the past week. RCA recording artists
805, a progressive :rock band from
Syracuse,
N.Y.,
performed in the Marist
cafeteria. The admission price for this
show was only $2. 805 sounds very close to
a cross between Genesis and Steely Dan,
with a little Asia thrown in. On their debut
album, Stand in Line, they display the
quality of being. able to cut crisp pro-
gressive songs that never extend over five
minutes. However, their strong point on
vinyl is aHbui missing in their live show ..
The cuts from the album were performed
well, but 805 came to Marist with an hour's
worth of good, tight music, and tried to
spread it over a two-hour span. The jams
between songs got long, and this, combined ·
with the audience's unfamiliarity with
805's music, left many empty seats by the
end of the concert, including mine. I would
rather have had Marist judge 805 by giving
Stand in Line
a chance on the turntable,
rather than have to sit through two hours
of music that lacked focus. I'm afraid that
after two hours of sitting on hard cafeteria .
seats watching 805, the only lasting impres-
sion Marist had of the band was a sore
backside. But all
-
things · considered, the
special effects, and the times. the band did
sparkle made the show well worth the price ,,
of admissi9n. -

The Irish may finally be having their day
at Marist College.
With Marist offering minors in Latin-
American, Jewish and Russian studies, the
· opportunity has arisen for the students to
possibly obtain a minor in Irish studies.
The program, the idea of many faculty,
administrators and students, may soon be a
reality if the Curriculum Committee
ratifies two proposed courses for the spring
semester.
,- "It is very important for the students to
understand their roots, especially in to-
day's homogenized society," said Dr. Bar-
bara Lavin, an assistant professor of
political science.
Dr. Lavin has already won approval for
the first course in an Irish studies program.
"The History and Political Culture of
Ireland" could combine with the proposed
"Irish Literature" and «Irish Art up to
1400 A.O." to form the nucleus for a
minor in Irish studies, according to Dr.
Lavin.
The Curriculum Committee, composed
of three. faclty members, will meet Jan. 15
to decide the program's fate.
"There are also non-Irish students who
are interested in studies because of the
significant impact of Ireland in the world,
particularly in America's past history,"
said Janice Casey, an assitant professor of
English who will teach the proposed Irish
Literature course.
Dr. Lavin's course, to be offered next
semester, will cover; prehistoric Ireland,
the invasions from the 9th to 16th centuries
of the Vikings, Anglo-Normans and
English and the troubles facing Ireland to-
day. Dr. Lavin said that her course is a
"survey course" and her great hope is that,
"as the Irish studies expand, we will be able
to develop more out of the present pro-
gram."
The development of more courses will be
needed before-a minor can be offered. Ac-
cording to Don Eustace, a former president
of the Gaelic Society, it will take 12 to
18
credit hours to constitute a minor.
Eustace, a junior, is credited by the
many involved in the program as the
"guiding force" in establishing an Irish
studies at Marist. He started on the project
after learning that other colleges had in-
stituted similar programs.

Mal et

points· to mental errors
.
for
2-4
record
by
John Petacchi
It may be the most over used word to
describe the Marist football team this year,
and it has plagued the team all year long.
Inconsistency, according to Red Fox Head
Coach
Mike Malet, has been the Red Fox-
es' biggest foe so far
.
this season:
'What happened in the RPI game is what
has happened four
·
times this year -
we had
our ups and downs and failed to play 60
minutes of solid football. ,
Mike Malet
"It
sounds repetitious, but it's true -
we've been inconsistent in all aspects of our
game all year long," says Malet. "Our of-
fense and defense have both played well at
times and have not played
·
well at times, It's
frustrating for the coaches and the players
knowing we've come so close so many
times."
The Foxes, 2-4 overall and losers of their
last two games, could easily be 5-1, but
mistakes, mostly rnentill.ly according to
Malet, have prevented a winning season to
date
,
Two weeks ago, against a tough For-
dham team, Marist held the Rams scorelss
in the first half only to give up 28 third
quarter points and end up losing 28-7.
Marist's only score came on a last-second
touchdown pass from Jason Hawkins to
·
Kent Charter to avoid a shutout.
'
This past Saturday, Marist lost their se-
cond straight, 22-19 to RPI in a non-
conference game. It looked as if Marist
·
might have an easy win early in the game
when Randy Rosand threw a 55-yard
touchdown pass to Warren Weller off an
option play on Marist's first possession.
But RPI came back to put together three
long touchdown drives and pulled ahead
22-19. Marist had one last chance. They
took the ball with 40 seconds remaining in
·
the game and it appeared they might pull it
out, but a lastcsecond Cleary pass to Mike
Strange was droped. What should have
been a Marist touchdown turned into their
.
third loss by five points or less.
Ron Dimmie scored his sixth touchdown
on a 10 yard run, and Cleary scored his fif-
th, also on a run, for the other Marist
scores.
"What happened in
·
the RPI game is
what has happened to us four times
·
this
year - we had our ups and downs and fail-
ed to play 60 minutes of solid football,"
says Malet. "It's frustr
_
ating. from
·
a
coach's standpoint knowing we are capable
of playing four quarters of good football,
as we did against St. Peter's and Brooklyn,
but our errors cost us .

have been so erratic, when so many players
have played well individually. Malet cited
Jim Cleary, Warren Weller, Andy Cioppa,
Brian Sewing, Jim Creech, Steve Boecklin
and Jim Van Cura for their fine play this
year.
"That's not to say the other guys haven't
been playing well because they have, but
what it comes down to is playing well as a
team and putting together 60 minutes of
super football," Malet says.
Statistically, Marist is having one of it's
finest years in the team's history. Ron Dim-
mie, with 394 yards rushing and six
touchdowns, needs only 81 yards to break
his own rushing record set last year and two
more touchdowns to surpass his own per-
sonal best of seven touchdowns. Jim
Cleary has completed 34 of 81 passes, for
527 yards and five touchdowns while
throwing only one interception. He has
rushed for another 234 yards and five
touchdowns. Both back-up quarterbacks,
Randy Rosand and Jason Hawkins, have
also thrown touchdown passes.
Warren Weller made the Marist record
.
book against RPI catching six passes for
134 yards. On the season, he has caught 15
passes for 340 yards and needs only six
more yards to break the record for most
yards by a receiver.
On defense, freshman Peter Moloney
leads in tackles with 30, followed by Brian
Sewing with 29 and Bill Wiegand with 24.
Steve Boecklin has intercepted three passes,
while five others have intercepted a pass
each. Opposing teams have completed just

Overall, Marist leads in almost every
category including points scored, 137-126,
but they fail to combine all the individual
·
efforts for a full 60 minutes, according to
Malet.
So where does that leave the Foxes?
Despite their 2-4 overall record, in the
Metropolitan Ci:mference they are 2-1
and
still have a good chance of winning the con-
ference championship. Marist will play
Pace University at Pleasantville this Satur-
day, and if they win, not only will they be
sitting pretty in the conference, but it will
be Marist's best record ever under Coach
Malet's reign.
Besides Pace, Marist has two more
games left to play and Malet sees fat\gue as
one possible reason for the mental mistakes
the team has made.
"It has been tough working around mid-
term week and returning from break, and
the kids may be a little tired. Most of our
mistakes have been mental mistakes with
people forgetting their assignments and it
could possibly be the frustration of know-
ing they could have won, but didn't,"
Malet says .
.
"Maybe we're not quite mature enough
to get over the hump," Malet adds, "b~t
there is definitely a good nucleus of a sohd
football team. Compared to last year, we
are a much better team and the attitude is
lOOOOJo
better than any team I have ever
coached."
EXTRA POINTS:
Marist will be without two of their star-
ting running backs, Jim Dowd and Mike
Spawn, for the rest of the season. Spawn
has left the team and Dowd has reinjured
his left shoulder.
Marist's big quarter this year has been
the second quarter as they have outscored
opponents 42-1_6. Their worst is the third
quarter where they have given up 48 points
and have managed only 21 points.
Marist is closing in on some school
records with three games remaining to
play. They are six points shy of the season
scoring mark of 143, set in 1980, and they

goalie Heinz Warmhold was drawn away
from th'e net and Seton Hall's Ken Cavello
scored on a pass from Steve Vonlindern.
Marist tied things up at the 19:39 mark,

Split

The Marist College women's tennis team
split its two matches last ·week leaving the
squad with a 5-2 record overall.
The team faced a very strong team in
· Concordia and were beaten soundly 9-0.
Then they went to Ramapo and crushed
their squad 7-2.
At Concordia,· the Foxes were simply
outclassed. Cindy Krueger said she felt· she
played well in her match against the player
ranked 15th on the east coast. "I was really
happy with the way I played," Krueger
said.
"I
felt

was in the match the whole
way." Krueger lost 2-6, 2~6.
.
In an exciting match, Josie Tropanio was
outstroked in a 3-set thriller, 6-2, 2-6, 1-6.
"She came out really strong, but_ Concor-
dia's player cooled Josie down with some
great groundstroke,'' Colagrossi said.
Colagrossi said the girls "played really
well" against Concordia. "It was a good
experience for my squad. All the girls did a
good job," she said.
